Paricalcitol Versus Pirfenidone for Improving Surgical Resectability in Patients With Peritoneal Cancer (RANDY 1A)

28. september 2026 oppdatert av: Patrick Wagner, MD, FACS

A Randomized Phase II Bayesian Pick-the-Winner Clinical Trial Investigating the Efficacy of Fibrosis-Modulating Agents (Paricalcitol and Pirfenidone) in Improving Surgical Resectability in Patients With Peritoneal Carcinomatosis Ineligible for Definitive Cytoreduction (Randy 1A)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if paricalcitol or pirfenidone can help make tumors removable by surgery in adults with peritoneal cancer who are currently unable to have their tumor removed.

The study aims to answer are whether paricalcitol or pirfenidone improve tumor response and tissue healing after 12 weeks of treatment, and which of these two drugs is more effective at helping participants become eligible for surgery. Researchers will compare paricalcitol to pirfenidone to see which drug works better and has a manageable safety profile.

Participants will take either paricalcitol or pirfenidone by mouth every day for 12 weeks while continuing their standard chemotherapy, visit the clinic regularly for checkups and lab tests, keep a daily diary to track their study medication, and undergo a surgical re-evaluation after treatment to see if their tumor can be removed.

Detaljert beskrivelse

This is a single-center, randomized Phase II clinical trial designed to investigate the efficacy of repurposing fibrosis-modulating agents to improve surgical resectability in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis. Peritoneal carcinomatosis is characterized by a challenging tumor microenvironment (TME) featuring extensive fibrosis and a high density of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). These elements create a dense desmoplastic barrier that impedes drug penetration, limits therapeutic efficacy, and frequently renders patients ineligible for definitive surgical cytoreduction.

To overcome these barriers, the trial evaluates two distinct anti-fibrotic agents: paricalcitol, a synthetic Vitamin D receptor agonist that promotes CAF quiescence and stromal remodeling, and pirfenidone, an oral anti-fibrotic agent that inhibits fibrosis by downregulating the TGF-β signaling pathway and collagen synthesis. Eligible participants are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive a 12-week course of either oral paricalcitol (2 mcg daily, titratable) or oral pirfenidone (titrated to 801 mg three times daily with food), administered concurrently with their ongoing standard systemic chemotherapy.
